Abstract excerpt

The occurrence of a multiple sclerosis (MS)-like phenotype in subjects carrying mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations associated with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) has suggested that mitochondrial genes may contribute to susceptibility to MS. With the present study 74 unrelated Italian patients (53 females and 21 males; mean age 37.9, SD 9.9, range 20-59) affected by MS with early and prominent optic...
